Benefits
It’s all about formation. With a tube hydroforming process so unique it's patented, we are able to expand tubing diameters by up to 100% with minimal wall thinning, using an inexpensive and safe multi-pressure system. HDT’s process is also capable of hydropiercing holes and slots.
Thinner and lighter. Our patented sheet hydroforming process promotes material uniform plastic strain distribution, high surface quality results and a potential for cost efficiencies. Additionally, sheet hydroforming often enables the use of thinner material gauges for weight reduction.
Tooling cost savings and flexibility. The HDT process helps our customers realize significant savings in tooling costs. Our system is designed to fit standard hydraulic presses, eliminating the need for special high-cost equipment. In addition, HDT tooling can be readily moved from one press to another, giving HDT more flexibility in production scheduling and equipment usage.
A repeatable process. HDT’s hydroforming system gives you a constant and repeatable process that can be a complete, flexible production turnkey system.

To sum it up. The use of hydroforming is relatively new and growing rapidly as the technology is being accepted as a viable process worldwide. Following is a summary of some of the many advantages HDT’s process offers:

  • Expands Tube Diameters by as much as 100% with Minimal Wall Thinning in localized areas.
  • Changeable Cross Sections for full length of the part.
  • Provides Stronger Parts through work hardening.
  • Eliminates MIG Welding saving time and money while providing better quality.
  • Reduces Part Weight
  • Lowers Manufacturing Costs through fewer dies, fewer parts and no special presses.
  • Reduces Material Costs by eliminating overlap.
  • Maximizes Flexibility: HDT equipment is transferable between presses.
  • Eliminates Expensive High Cost Equipment, while achieving the same results, using the HDT multi-pressure process.
